Just wanted to say hi to another apple on the forum. We are few and far between, but not alone!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-191057 Wed, 28 Jul 2010 03:58:05 +0000 Sally 191057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the welcomes. Yes I suppose it does make sense...when I read what apples should wear, they are all the things that suit me. My mother has a very apple shape so she was shocked to hear that I was the same shape as her as she couldn't wear a lot of things that I wear but I think that is to do with age and the fact that she is carrying more weight than me.<br /> Katiepea, I'm not in Australia. I live in New Zealand but I have visited Australia a lot as my family are Australian. I think the sizes are the same in Australia. I visited the states recently and the sizing was quite different there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190656 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 14:26:40 +0000 Angie 190656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Sally! That was fast work. </p> <p>You're an adorable apple. Does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190589 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 08:33:00 +0000 Louise 190589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi and welcome Sally, I'm not much good at bodyshapes but wanted to give you a big YLF welcome x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190581 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 07:44:04 +0000 Katiepea 190581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sally!</p> <p>I'm not particularly good at helping people with their body-shape, but I can see that you do have nicely balanced shoulders and hips - lucky lady. Get your adult photographer to take a picture from the side view as well. (I have the *same* issue with my children taking my pictures, I either look blurry, like a giant or like I have no legs! :-)) </p> <p>The ladies on here are really clever at helping you identify your figure shape - I never would have known I was an hourglass primary/pear secondary, without their help!</p> <p>Are you in Australia by any chance? I just wondered because of your sizing reference?</p> <p>Anyway, welcome and have fun on your style journey! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190573 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 06:32:34 +0000 AJ 190573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, I just tried looking again and they are still sideways. The pics are a little blurry. Maybe try again tomorrow with an adult photographer. : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190571 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 06:26:14 +0000 Sally 190571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Weird...when i log on it shows it the right way.....<a href="http://s847.photobucket.com/albums/ab40/newgirl360/bodytype/?action=view&#038;current=DSC03001.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s847.photobucket.com/al.....C03001.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190570 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 06:17:47 +0000 AJ 190570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I used the same link you had and it still shows the pic sideways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190567 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:58:57 +0000 Sally 190567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yes I've done that. does that help? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190562 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:43:47 +0000 AJ 190562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it possible to rotate the pics? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190561 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:40:43 +0000 Sally 190561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sorry about the fuzzy pictures. This is the best I can do today. I got my son to take it. otherwise I'll wait to get another adult.</p> <p><a href="http://s847.photobucket.com/albums/ab40/newgirl360/bodytype/" rel="nofollow">http://s847.photobucket.com/al...../bodytype/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190544 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:52:18 +0000 Angie 190544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another welcome from me, Sally!</p> <p>Do you think that someone else could take your pictures? That way we can make a more accurate assessment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190540 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:48:03 +0000 AJ 190540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sally! Welcome to YLF!</p> <p>Your shoulders do not appear more prominent than your hips, so I'm inclined to say rectangle also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190534 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:39:45 +0000 Carole 190534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's hard to tell from the pictures, and I'm no expert, but as an inverted triangle myself, if you wear a larger size jacket or top to fit the shoulders and your hips are a size or two smalller, I think you could be an inverted triangle. Hopefully Angie will chime in </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190495 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:42:21 +0000 Sveta 190495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sally, we all need objective opinions - nothing is as difficult to see as yourself!<br /> You are in the right place to get that opinion :-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190492 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:39:56 +0000 Sally 190492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thats probably why I need an objective opinion because I dont have a clue myself. I do put on weight around my middle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190487 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:27:12 +0000 Queen Mum 190487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sally and welcome from me as well. It's a bit hard to tell in your pictures but I was thinking the same thing as Sveta. Rectangle with a slice of apple </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190485 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:25:41 +0000 Sveta 190485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi and welcome Sally!<br /> I am not an expert but I do not see an inverted triangle. I would say rectangle with apple tendencies but I may be wrong :0)<br /> However our style guru will sort you out pretty quickly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-confirmation#post-190439 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 02:28:15 +0000 Sally 190439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi<br /> I've just joined and I just wanted confirmation on what body type I am.<br /> I take a size 12 jeans (bout 8-10 US size) and a size 14 jacket /dress. I dont think I have much of a waist and find I look better with my shirts left out than tucked in. I have a flat bottom.<br /> I thought I was an inverted triangle but I could be wrong.</p> <p>I hope this link works</p> <p><a href="http://s847.photobucket.com/albums/ab40/newgirl360/clothes%20ideas/" rel="nofollow">http://s847.photobucket.com/al.....s%20ideas/</a> </p>
